The Handley Page H.P.42 and H.P.45 were British four-engine biplane airlinersdesigned to a 1928 Imperial Airways specification by Handley Page of Radlettin Hertfordshire.The H.P.42/45 were the land-based airliners of Imperial Airways and along with the airline's later flying boats are well remembered. Eight were built, four of each type; all were named, with names beginning with the letter "H". The three survivors were pressed into Royal Air Force service at the outbreak of the Second World War. No lives were lost in civilian service (a record thought to be unique for contemporary aircraft)[citation needed] but by 1940, all aeroplanes had been destroyed.
